CNET.co.uk Review

Editors' rating 7/10 Good Provided by: What is it? Windows Mobile smart phone with a Qwerty keypad What we think? It looks good but Windows Mobile lets it down We like Wi-Fi; HSDPA; Qwerty keypad; large screen; 3.5mm headphone jack We don’t like Interface lags at times; Windows Mobile requires using a stylus for certain items Accessories microSD memory card, spare battery. CNET.co.uk judgement We really wanted to love the Sony Ericsson Xperia X1 as it boasts an attractive design and features the iPhone 3G would be jealous of, but it runs on Windows Mobile and as a consequence doesn't deliver a great user experience. If only the Xperia X1 ran on Android with all the Microsoft support of Windows Mobile and featured a more sensitive screen, then Sony Ericsson might have hit the jackpot

Stuff Review   Editors' rating 4/5 Provided by: Pros Solid and quality build. Spacious QWERTY. High speed connectivity options. Great web browser. Stunning widescreen display Cons Improved Panel UI still not convincing. Too much reliance on stylus. 3.2MP snapper too lightweight for a top smartphone Stuff Says A great all round smartphone but hobbled by that blasted Windows Mobile engine
